COLD WATER

Now as heaven opens people start to wonder

if they will ever see the dawn.

Well, if we are lucky some will live

and some will die. It’s all down

to the catastrophic damage that man

has done to the atmosphere. The ozone

is gone and acid rain drenches

an entire continent. It falls like cold water

but it dissolves everything it touches

being the killer it is. This is man’s legacy

against the planet that is his home.
